Player Polymarket
Brewers Jacob Misiorowski 94%
Braves Chris Sale  2%
Phillies Cristopher Sanchez 2%

Odds as of 9-15.

MLB Cy Young favorites

Cam Schlittler, Yankees (97%)

Cam Schlittler is the man.

The New York Yankees hurler is now 14-6 with a 1.95 ERA in 184 2/3 innings and has allowed one run or fewer in seven consecutive starts and eight of his last 10.

Toronto Blue Jays righty Dylan Cease has had an exemplary season as well. However, a recent rough patch exacerbated by wobbly command has given the reins to Schlittler, and the lead may be insurmountable at this juncture.

Jacob Misiorowski, Brewers (87%)

Jacob Misiorowski leads all starters with 6.0 fWAR, as he's 14-5 with a 1.95 ERA and 13.17 K/9 in 161 1/3 innings

Cristopher Sanchez and Chris Sale are close behind him, with the former approaching 200 innings, but it seems as though "The Miz" has the hardware mostly locked up barring some late-season shenanigans.
